Hmm, actually X is finding your card just fine: GraphicsCard: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS690M [Radeon X1200 Series] [1002:791f] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:01fd]
xrandr.txt indicates it's finding your display outputs okay, and has identified a full range of resolutions, and has found a preferred resolution and set it. It also properly identified your monitor manufacturer: [ 112.336] (II) RADEON(0): Manufacturer: LPL Model: 0 Serial#: 0 However it did not figure out the model or name of the monitor. Indeed, there is just garbage here: [ 112.336] (II) RADEON(0): v_active: 900 v_sync: 901 v_sync_end 904 v_blanking: 912 v_border: 0 [ 112.336] (II) RADEON(0): UM606171WX2 [ 112.336] (II) RADEON(0): '8CKjÄÿ [ 112.336] (II) RADEON(0): EDID (in hex): This is what it should look like (well, how it looks for me): [ 5.733] (II) RADEON(0): v_active: 350 v_sync: 387 v_sync_end 389 v_blanking: 449 v_border: 0 [ 5.733] (II) RADEON(0): Ranges: V min: 56 V max: 76 Hz, H min: 30 H max: 83 kHz, PixClock max 175 MHz [ 5.733] (II) RADEON(0): Monitor name: BenQ 241W [ 5.733] (II) RADEON(0): EDID (in hex): That's probably why you see the display shown as 'Unknown'. So, I think when you say "wrong graphic card drivers" what you really mean is "Wrongly identified monitor". If that's incorrect please explain further. ** Summary changed: - [RS690M] Wrong graphic card drivers + [RS690M] Wrong monitor identified in EDID -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/925957 Title: [RS690M] Wrong monitor identified in EDID To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/925957/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
